power source by running an extension cord from the inverter to the

television set.

4. Coil the television power cord and the input cables running from the

12 volt power source to the inverter.

5. Attach a "Ferrite Data Line Filter" to the television power cord. More

than one filter may be required. These filters are available at most

electronic supply stores.

Note:

Some inexpensive audio systems may produce a slight "buzzing" sound

when operated with the inverter. The only solution to this problem is to

use a sound system with better power supply filtering.

Operating a Microwave oven with Your Power Inverter

The power rating used with microwave ovens is the "cooking power"

which means the power being "delivered" to the food being cooked. The

actual operating power rating is listed on the back of the microwave. If

the operating power cannot be found on the back of the microwave,

check the owner's manual or contact the manufacturer.

How This Modified Sine Wave Power Inverter Works

There are two stages in which this power inverter changes the 12 volt

DC (or battery) power into 110v AC (household current).

STAGE 1: This inverter uses a DC to DC converter to increase the DC

input voltage from the battery to 145 volts DC.

STAGE 2: The inverter then converts the high voltage DC into 110v AC

(household current), using advanced MOSFET transistor in a full bridge

configuration. This design provides this Energizer

inverter with the

capability to start and run difficult reactive loads, while providing

excellent overload capability. The waveform that is generated by this

conversion is a "modified sine wave" as shown in the diagram below.
